The Grip component provides for trochanteric reattachment following osteotomy in Total Hip Arthroplasty. The proximal hooks of the Grip are placed over the top of the trochanter and secured by passing Dall-Miles cables through the holes and crimping them in place.
Device Story
Bone fixation cerclage system; used for trochanteric reattachment post-osteotomy in total hip arthroplasty. Device consists of a grip component with proximal hooks and cables. Hooks placed over trochanter; cables passed through grip holes and crimped to secure. Modification reduces cable exit angle to minimize stress concentrations. Used by orthopedic surgeons in clinical/OR settings.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
Bone fixation cerclage; metallic grip component with cable-based tensioning and crimping mechanism. Design modification reduces cable exit angle to mitigate stress concentrations. Sterilization and material specifications not explicitly detailed in summary.
Indications for Use
Indicated for trochanteric reattachment following osteotomy in Total Hip Arthroplasty.
